In this issue

Irony, humor, and sarcasm, striking characteristics of Machado's writing, are present in this work, considered one of the most Influential of Literary Realism in the world. Using complex and sophisticated language, with wordplay that challenges the reader, Machado de Assis tells the story of Bras Cubas, a rich and idle man, without great ambitions in life, who experiences a series of romantic and professional adventures. However, he never manages to find a meaning for his existence. In this novel full of philosophical ramblings, one of the greatest writers of the 19th century brings to light important questions about finitude and life after death.
